I mean, isn't he a reporter? he could have reported on the tapes instead of keeping them for his book - i.e. the medium most profitable to him - seven months and 190,000 lives later. He sat on information that the president was lying about a deadly public health risk.

Imagine you're a substitute teacher and the principal at one of your schools tells you he's just learned there is flesh eating bacteria growing in all the walls and ceilings, but he's going to tell everyone it's totally fine. Do you write a book? Or get the kids tf out of there?

Worth noting that this is the same Bob Woodward who, during the confirmation hearings, sat on a story that Kavanaugh had lied in a 1999 public letter, widely published, denying that he was an inside source during the Starr investigation. He was in fact, Woodward's inside source.

Would have been cool if Bob had thrown it out there that Brett is a very convincing publicly facing liar, and more than willing to be one.

Win some lifetime appointments, lose some, I guess. The important thing is that he wasn't perceived as a guy who discloses sources.

Christine Blasey Ford: Brett Kavanaugh assaulted me

Everyone: He says he didnt

CBF: he's lying

Everyone: Brett is not a liar. He's impartial and a-political, and his integrity is unquestioned. You must be the liar.

CBF: [fleeing with her children from her home]

Woodward: 🕵️‍♂️
